; LONDON, Nov. 28.-The evidence
taken in the Bow street police court in
the case of the alleged dynamiters, Cal
Ian and Harkins, confirms the suspi-
eions of the police that they were con-
nected with the plot to commit dyna-
mite OutrageS during the week OF the
queens jubilee. The Importance which
the authorities attach to the case is
abundantly shown by the precautions
taken by the police in guarding the
prisoners. who, in being conveyed to
the court and back to Hallowell jail,
were driven in van surrounded by a
mounted guard fully armed and carry
ing drawn sabers, and filled with po-
lice, equally well provided with means
of preventing their escape. In addition
to the detail of cOnstables riding inside
of the van with the prisoners, the top of
the vehicle was occupied by
half dozen "bObbies'' Of formidable
aspect, and thus guarded the unlucky
men were hurried from Jail to court
and back again. The hearing was con-
ducted with great secrecy. Notice was
given at an early hour that the public
would not be admitted, but great
crowd cOngregated about the building
and employed every species OF argu-
ment to convince the officials that they
were entitled to admission, but without
avail. The hearing of the prisoners is
expected to develop exceedingly inter
esting revelations, but as detection in
disclosing the proceedings involves GER
tain punishment for contempt it is
probable that the details will be slow in
reaching the public.
THE REVELATIONS
of the inquest on the body OF George M.
Graham, of Rochester, n. Y, are looked
forward to with a great deal of interest,
us there are many things connected
with the affair that need explanation.
Doherty, the man who is charged with
having done the shooting, will probably
Tscape hanging because of the fact that
..ebndy except his wife, himself and his
victim was present, and that the dying
deposition of Graham was not taken by
or in the presence of a magistrate, nor
did the dying man say anything to his
attendants in the hospital that could be
used against his aSSailants. Mrs. DOherty
is legally debarred from giving teSti-
meny against her husband, and thus the
testimony of the only person witness
Ilig the AFFAIR Is tXcIuueu- IL Is IldIuly
possible, however, that Doherty can es-
cape serving term i'll prison.
LORD LYONS,
until quite recently British ambassador
TO France, is sinking fast, and his death
may be looked for any day. His age
he is in his seventy-first year-is re-
garded as altogether against his rally
ing, in view of the character OF his all
ment, and having been prominent per-
sonage in English diplomatic circles for
many years, his displacement by the
appointment of Lord LyttOn to succeed
at Paris has undoubtedly preyed on his
mental and physical strength and mill
tates against his chances of recovery.
Lsrd Lyons was the British minister at
Washington at the time of the Prince
of Wales memorable tour of the United
States, in the summer of 1860, and took
prominent part in the diplomatic con-
troversieS between the American and
English governments which arose dur
ing the war of the rebellion.
TIE COMING PROSECUTION
of Lord Mayor Il. ID. Sullivan, which
will shortly occur in Dublin. will be inn
mediately followed, it is understood, by
proceedings against the editors and pro-
prietors of large number of provincial
journals which have published reports
of suppressed league meetings, i'll def
ance of the vicerOy's proclamation, and
lt is said that several new interpreta-
tions of various clauses of the crimes
act will also be promulgated within a
short time.
